Temptation Island records high ratings, spurs talk of September special
The latest edition of the Italian reality show Temptation Island closed on 29 July with an average audience of 3.97 million viewers and a 31 % share, generating over 700 million views on its official social channels. The programme has been described as the main cultural driver of the Italian summer, attracting a large share of viewers aged 15‑34 and prompting public screenings in bars and pubs.
Author Raffaella Mennoia told TV Sorrisi e Canzoni that a special episode could be filmed for September, though no official confirmation has been given. Participants such as Rosario Monetti have hinted that their post‑show relationships might be revisited on‑air, adding to speculation about a possible September return.
Separately, former contestant Soraya Sabetta used TikTok to denounce a wave of online hate, including death threats directed at her family and pets, after the season ended. She called for more respectful commentary on social media.
